Transferring to a university

Start smart at CCC! You can save thousands of dollars on your education while taking classes at CCC that can transfer to a number of in-state and out-of-state colleges and universities, including public and private schools.

Our transfer degrees are designed to fit seamlessly into your goals beyond CCC.

We strongly encourage you to meet with both a CCC advisor and an advisor from your intended university to ensure a smooth transition.
